What 5 releases would you recommend to someone who is just beginning to listen to Power Electronics?
yes, those linked topics are good to go, discussion can continue there.
Thanks very helpful. The Canon of Power Electronics discussion seems like a good place to begin.
Ever since the Troniks forum was working I noticed that every now and then someone comes along and asks "where do I begin?". At that forum I once suggested a kind of introductory thread that could be a sticky, giving a list of the more essential projects from Noise/PE/Industrial/etc, but that didn't happen. It doesn't have to be a big, long, contentious thing, just a few basics for people just getting into this kind of thing to go on. So perhaps the "canon" thread can be a sticky?
I'd say there could be also a list of releases that actually are available. Half of the canon thread albums aren't and the thread ends 2008 anyway. Or perhaps everyone is checking things out from youtube anyway?
Buy what you like, make mistakes, like stuff that others don' but just enjoy the process.
and buy harsh noise too !
Just make sure you purchase DEATHPILE - 'GR' and CON-DOM - 'Color of a Man's Skin' somewhere during your first purchases.
I second the above!
